Senior Magistrate Harnita Zelda Skinner on Thursday sentenced Abdul Rasyid bin Jali to jail for two years and six months for theft after the local man pleaded guilty to three charges of car theft before the Magistrate’s Court.
Prosecutor Nurul Husna Abidin revealed that the defendant first stole a vehicle left with its engine running at a parking lot of a commercial building along Jalan Sultan Omar ‘Ali Saifuddien at 10pm on September 19.
The owner left the car idling to buy food from a store nearby.
